CVE-2019-25072
Due to support of Gzip compression in request bodies, as well as a lack of limiting response body sizes, a malicious server can cause a client to consume a significant amount of system resources, which may be used as a denial of service vector.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.19%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
